POPSThings Didn't Happen In 2007 Everybody oohed and ahed over Google's new presentation offering, but then went right on using PowerPoint. Because that's what you use for presentations, everybody knows it. Google gets an 'A' for effort and for presenting alternatives, but as Microsoft is learning with Vista, the public seems rather reluctant to change the status quo. Unless it's for Apple products, that is.

POPSMy Metaverse Can Beat Up Your Metaverse… Can’t We All Just Multiverse Along? For those keeping score, Google is gearing up to pwn the Virtual World market, while the Japanese are building their own private garden and China is getting ready to enter the third dimension even if it does require them to practice self-censorship to get there.

POPSMy Very Own SLurl :)
I love Second Life. I don't have nearly enough time in the day to truly enjoy being an SL "resident". Each time I log on to SL the water in front of my house is clearer (yes I have a beach front property!), my avatar moves more gracefully, my neighbors develop and redevelop their land and I never want to log off. It's ADDICTING!! I really can't believe that when I signed up in October of last year there were nearly a million residents and today there is over 8 million!! I understand many of those 8 million "residents" are people who have checked it out, got frustrated because the Second Life learning curve is so steep and have yet to log on again to learn more. None-the-less it shows something--people are curious about virtual worlds and what it feels like to be in them.
